Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Akihiro Iwamatsu is best known for:

Gene
Signal transduction
Phosphorylation

His work on Medical education as part of his general Medical school study is frequently connected to Library science, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His work on Medical education is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Medical school. As part of his studies on Cell biology, he often connects relevant areas like GTPgammaS. While working on this project, Akihiro Iwamatsu studies both GTPgammaS and G protein. He combines G protein and Protein kinase A in his research. Akihiro Iwamatsu performs integrative study on Protein kinase A and Kinase in his works. He undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Kinase and Gene in his work. Akihiro Iwamatsu conducted interdisciplinary study in his works that combined Gene and Mutant. His study ties his expertise on Protein kinase domain together with the subject of Mutant.

His most cited work include:

Rho-associated kinase, a novel serine/threonine kinase, as a putative target for small GTP binding protein Rho. (971 citations)
A novel signaling molecule, p130, forms stable complexes in vivo with v-Crk and v-Src in a tyrosine phosphorylation-dependent manner. (623 citations)
A novel membrane glycoprotein, SHPS-1, that binds the SH2-domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 in response to mitogens and cell adhesion (423 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date

His research links Proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Src with Biochemistry. His work often combines Molecular biology and Complementary DNA studies. In his work, Akihiro Iwamatsu performs multidisciplinary research in Complementary DNA and Molecular biology. He integrates Gene with Amino acid in his study. He connects Amino acid with Peptide sequence in his study. His studies link Genetics with Peptide sequence. Genetics and Gene are two areas of study in which he engages in interdisciplinary research.
